PwC-Global-Entertainment-Media-Content-Spending-Shift-June2013Consumer spending on entertainment and media content is moving away from physical purchases, and that shift will only intensify over the next 5 years, according to the latest “Global entertainment and media (E&M) outlook,” from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). While physical purchases represented 88% of total spending on E&M content in 2008, that number has dropped to 73% this year, and will fall to 53% by 2017. That mirrors an overall spending transition in the global E&M market.
